Does smelly feet really represent good health or bad health?

Foot odor, body odor and body odor are all natural phenomena in which the body excretes toxins; Foot odor has almost become a patent for modern teenagers, because modern children have accumulated a lot of acidic poisons in the human body since childhood. Until adolescence, when acidic poisons accumulate to a certain extent and human antibodies are already strong, the human body will begin to detoxify when it has the ability to eliminate these acidic poisons. Because the human ankle is the bottom of the human body, acidic poisons are most likely to gather here. When the human body begins to eliminate these acidic poisons accumulated in the ankles, the smell of foot odor or beriberi will appear, especially for some children who don't eat vegetables at all. Their feet smell like corpses, which is extremely unpleasant. As long as they don't eat chicken, duck, fish, meat, beans or other acidic foods for a period of time, the foot odor will naturally disappear after the waiter removes the accumulated acid poison in the body or ankle.

Causes of foot odor

There are several reasons for smelly feet.

1. Humid environment: The soles of the feet are sweaty. The sole of the foot has more than 600 sweat glands per square centimeter, 2 ~ 4 times more than other parts of the body. There are about 250,000 sweat glands in total, which can secrete nearly 500 ml of sweat every day. Besides water and salt, sweat also contains lactic acid and urea. When the water content is high, it is very beneficial to the reproduction of bacteria and mold.

2. Hot and closed space: When the shoes are tightly worn and the ventilation is not good, the ph value of the skin surface will change from the original ph4.4 to around ph7, and carbon dioxide gas will be released, which is the most suitable environment for some bacteria to grow on the soles of the feet.

3. Bacterial reproduction: due to the superposition of one or two factors, it can cause the growth of bacteria in the skin of feet. These bacteria can decompose urea and lactic acid in skin keratin and foot sweat, and form various metabolites containing odor, such as

(1) Brevibacterium can decompose keratin components to form methyl mercaptan. The smell of methionine is similar to that of cheese fermentation.

(2) The fat components in sebum are decomposed by Staphylococcus aureus, which will form short-chain fatty acids.

(3) Urea in sweat is decomposed into ammonia by bacteria.

These smells are mixed together and tightly locked in airtight socks, which will form unpleasant foot odor.

4. Propagation of mold: A hot and humid environment will make mold grow and form tinea pedis, commonly known as beriberi. The symptoms of beriberi are very diverse. Not all beriberi smells. The most common type of athlete's foot that produces foot odor is athlete's foot with wet skin and rotten skin between toe tendons, which is the most serious. 5. Too thick old cutin: Too thick old cutin, under the infiltration of sweat, will become the nutrient source needed by bacteria and mold, promote the reproduction of bacteria and mold, and worsen the formation of foot odor.
